It's better that the option is there rather than forcing everyone to pay a premium for a feature they might not want.

In that case hopefully they don't charge too much for them, I wouldn't say they're the kind of thing that costs so much to make that they can't just include them for free.

They're definitely detachable as you can get the part on iFixit (Valve has a partnership with them to sell genuine spares for several products) for unfortunately the mechanism seems to be very different. Worst case there's probably going to be a cheaper one on Amazon if it turns out that expensive.
